Teen sex doesn't cause bad grades

Teen sex doesn't cause bad grades - Health - Kids and parenting - msnbc.com: A provocative new study has found that teens in committed relationships do no better or worse in school than those don't have sex. The same isn't true for teens who 'hook up.' Researchers found that those who have casual flings get lower grades and have more school-related problems compared with those who abstain.

In a statement, the Family Research Council said the study confirms what the group has long advocated about the negative consequences of casual sex. But the council said it "would not interpret less severe educational impacts on students involved in 'committed' sexual relationships as a green light for comprehensive" sex education.
